Solution
a dark moonless night
There were only a few pricks of fire (stars) in the night sky.
The night was still, windless and clear, as a result of which, every sound was distinct and intensified.
The bark of a dog all the way at Delmonden could be clearly heard in the woods.
As Peter walked on the road, he could hear the echo of his own footsteps sounding like a death knell.
The roadside, being a mass of thorns, crackled and rustled as loud as the thud of the man‟s feet.
